Gourmet Dinner at Loch Melfort

Just back from a fantastic 7 course dinner with wine at Loch Melfort in their newly renamed Asknish Bay restaurant. The hotel has a fabulous setting with views to die for and the 2 Red Rosetted restaurant produces wonderful food - more often than not from local producers.

I would strongly recommend our Cologin customers to treat themselves to dinner - it's not too far down the road (about 14 miles from our lodges) and in the summer with late sunsets the views alone would be worth the drive. Otherwise go during the day and drop in to Arduaine Gardens next door. A light lunch at the Chartroom Bistro (again - great views) will provide a lovely day out for the family. Rachel and Calum are to be warmly congratulated for the way they run Loch Melfort. It is child friendly, relaxed and yet totally professional and very grown up!  We certainly enjoyed our meal (with excellent wines) and will be back regularly. Perhaps we'll take the boat round next time and use the moorings.
